DESCRIPTION:Newcomer Rides are no-drop\, recreational-paced rides of around 20 miles to introduce riders to new sights around town or to investigate "old" sights in more detail. The rides start in different locations and we consider them successful if every rider can report that at least one destination is new to him or her!\\nThis month's west side ride begins and ends at The Culver Steps\, the epicenter of the city reimagining itself as a destination for work\, dining\, and commerce. The local streets are being reconfigured with one lane each for cars\, buses\, and bikes to encourage green transportation methods.\\n\\n\\n\\nThe beginners route will tour a few Hollywood sights on the way to Sunset Plaza turnaround. It will be about 17 miles with 500 feet of climbing.\\n\\n\\n\\nThe full route will be 28 miles and 2\,000 ft of climbing - We did say there will be hills.\\n\\n\\n\\nShort Route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/39235480\\n\\n\\n\\nLong Route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/39184915\\n\\n\\n\\nCue Sheets:\\nhttp://www.bfk.com/wheelmen/sunset_plaza__nichols_canyon.pdf\\nhttp://www.bfk.com/wheelmen/hollywood_and_highland_beginner_ride.pdf\\n\\n\\n\\nThe basic and extended rides will be led by volunteers from the Los Angeles Wheelmen Cycling Southern California since 1945.\\n\\n\\n\\nPlan to spend extra time on this ride than if you were riding alone because we will not drop any riders and delays may be encountered due to mechanical problems or flat tires.\\n\\n\\n\\nCheck back for more details as the routes are developed and and we test ride the routes\\n\\n\\n\\nRequirements:\\n\\n\\n\\nHelmets are mandatory.
